Hello World!

Well, I've finally decided to enter into the world of blogging. I don't do much journaling, so I am hoping this will be a good way to record a little bit of my life! 

It's the Saturday before Easter, and I am sitting in my dorm room by myself. Biola is almost completely empty because we just got on Spring Break yesterday and everyone is at home. This is typical of my holidays at school, solitude and rest. Sad? Sure I miss my family ( a lot), and it can get pretty lonely, but it is always such a great time to reflect on the semester and how 

God is working in me. Especially now during the Easter holiday, it is so important to remember what Christ has done for us on the cross. This semester has been incredibly busy and so often I have taken for granted the life that was bought for me through Jesus' sacrifice. So when the campus is quiet and I have the room to myself, I want to rejoice in my eternal life!!

I haven't decided where I will go to church tomorrow. Having switched from Rock Harbor to New City Church of LA, I was planning on going to New City. Last night, though, I went to the Good Friday service at Rock Harbor and it really made me want to go to their Easter Service. It's the the Pacific Ampitheater in Costa Mesa and it is amazing! Plus, they are filming a movie downtown tomorrow and I know I will never be able to find my way through all the detours. We'll see...

I am going to lunch/dinner with my great Aunt and Uncle and their family after church. It will be nice to see some relatives. I am only going to be back in Michigan for a week within the span of a year, so to see some familiar faces will be nice. 

Well, I hope everyone enjoys their Easter. Love God. Love Family. Love Friends.
